Which was worse: Rigondeaux quitting against Loma or Ramirez quitting against Espinoza

Broken orbital is a legitimately bad injury. If true, then I'd cut Ramirez some slack.

Yes, Arthur Abraham fought like 8 rounds with a broken jaw and so have others, but I don't expect someone with a broken orbital to keep going. Rigo's was worse because he quit due to being embarrassed. Hadn't even gotten hit that much, just clowned.

 

This all day

 

So it´s OK to quit during the middle of a fight, when you have not been hurt at all?

 

But the stoppage still stands that it was a legal shot that broke the bone. Ramirez stances is he quit cause he was being fouled.

Had he ate that last punched and waved it of without that excuse I dont think there would be such an uproar. All he had to say was I got hit and I couldn’t see and there is unbelievable pain. I dont think anyone would have said anything.

 

Dude he looked like a child in there an old geriatric child

 

Who quit because he was loosing the fight, not because he suffered a painful injury or got hurt with punches. He had no reason to quit besides just giving up.
2 time Olympic gold medalist, undefeated, world champion for over 5 years: quit after 6 rounds because he was behind on the scorecards.

 

He took it for the money fool was done at the top

 

Honestly I don’t judge either one of them. It will affect their legacy and likely careers when it happens, but they’re human and lots can happen.

Rigo was definitely a great fighter regardless of his quitting vs a prime Loma, who looked way bigger on the night. I don’t think there was much to gain for him continuing that night.

If Ramirez’ face was broken, I won’t hold it against him for deciding to call it a night.

 

Which makes it an even worse quit job.

 

Nah the old decrepid part blunts that being a young healthy guy who's still at the top of your game and quitting is worse

 

Yea, strongly disagree. One had a legitimate injury/got hurt, the other simply quit.

 

You would judge an old man harsher than a young guy in his prime?

 

You are acting as if he were 50. He was 37 and still more than capable of competing at the world level. Youth has nothing to do with this.
Especially when Rigo went on to have a war with Ceja. Even won the BS regular WBA belt several years later.

 

Don't know about you but my body is breaking down with age
